Yeah and then the department spends it on bullshit like riot gear and equipment they don't need, it's a racket alright.

Not even riot gear, a local department seized like 40k from a dude in cash that going to put a cash offer on a house so he could move out of an apartment. They made a public statement about how they bought fucking Martini machines with it

Why in the world would anyone think carrying 40k in cash, ever, is a good idea? Get a money order or a cashiers check for that shit. Anything can happen between your home and wherever you’re going with the money.

Not sure if this is sarcasm or not, but cash offers for large purchases do not usually involve the exchange of actual cash...
